At present, yarns come from the US, Britain and Canada. Bit by bit, I'm adding yarns made from small US farm wools. Some yarns are here for the long haul, others are limited editions.
Are natural dyes color fast and fade resistant?
There is an almost infinite number of natural dye sources but many are not light or wash fast. Flora Adora Fibers uses natural dyes that are known to have excellent to good light and wash fastness. Food grade mordants are used to bind dyes and permanently fix them to the fibers.
Both commercial and natural dyes will fade with extended exposure to strong light.
Washing yarns and finished projects in cool water with a pH neutral soap will further help maintain colors.
